"Do you think we're tan enough? Itachi asked looking at his watch. It was 12:15 and he and Deidara would have to leave soon to pick up Sasuke.

"Well, I think I'm looking pretty tan, yeah." Deidara said sitting up in the reclining pool chair.

"Hey! When you two go to get Sasuke Marisol and I are going to take a walk on the beach." Dana said happily.

"Marisol, you be careful out there. There's probably at least 100 prying eyes that will be all over you, yeah." Deidara warned.

"I'll be careful, baby."Marisol reassured him. Itachi and Deidara put their stuff in the giant beach tote and kissed the girls goodbye, it was time to change to go to the airport. Once they returned to the condo there were two notes on the counter:

'Went to Pottery Barn-Be back by 3:00' and the other note…

'At Museum with Lola-Be back sometime'

"Oh! I want to write a note too, yeah!" Deidara said with blue eyes shining. Itachi rolled his eyes.

"Fine but hurry up so we can get a cab to the airport, the traffic is going to be a bitch." And so Deidara started his note of course Itachi had to yell at him three more times before he would got to get changed, but finally his note read:

'Went to airport to pick up Sasuke, yeah. Then we're coming back to unpack him somewhere in this condo and then we'll probably go back to the beach to find Marisol and Dana and after that we're going to need to start getting ready for…okay never mind because Itachi is yelling at me to get changed because we have to leave now' –Deidara

"Hey Itachi! Do you think I should wear the.." Deidara was cut off.

"I don't care! Itachi yelled.

"Well, do you think I should wear the…." He was cut off again.

"Don't care! Come on it's time to go!" Itachi yelled again. And finally they were on their way to the airport.

" Wow! Can you believe it! The leader has been looking for one of these 'welcome to our home' lawn ornaments for at least 2 years!" Kisame said filling up their pottery barn cart. They had so much useless crap in the cart. Tobi INSISTED on getting the ceramic koi fish, Zetsu had found half priced table cloths and tiki torches, Hidan and Kakuzu were currently arguing over what was truly the 'perfect' patio furniture. Not that there was ANY room in the van for a set of patio furniture. However, much to everyone's dismay their argument has escalated to the point where Hidan was so pissed that he was currently picking out pieces of wicker patio furniture just to prove to Kakuzu that wicker was the perfect interior and exterior choice for patio décor.

"Oh shit, he's going for the umbrella." Kisame said to Zetsu.

"Hey look at it this way. Let him do the furniture thing and if we have to haul it all back home just to settle their arguing we'll turn around and sell it all on eBay." Zetsu reassured him. It seemed like a good idea so they left them alone and headed for the bedding. Tobi had gotten completely sidetracked in the dishes and house wares section.

"You know, it's been at least 3 years since I've done anything with my bedding at home. Deidara and Itachi always have new good looking bedding." Zetsu said.

"Dude, that's because they use their bed as more of a…..fashion statement and….a peaceful retreat if you want to call it that." Kisame said.

"Yeah, but I just want something nicer, I don't need to have the absolute entire Kenneth Cole Home collection." It seemed that this would turn into a long day. Especially now that Hidan was busy choosing cushions for the wicker patio furniture all the while screaming at Kakuzu.

"And so when I visited Venice I spent the day admiring all the architecture. It's one of the most beautiful places in the world! Then I took a gondola ride after dark and it was just so peaceful." Lola said. Sasori just stared at her happily.

"You know I have never been to Venice. I've always thought a trip to Europe would be so….romantic you know, but there's no way in hell I could go with my friend's." Lola laughed.

"Why not?"

"Because my friends are complete idiots…well most of them. They would destroy my Europe buzz." Lola smiled dreamily.

"You could always get away from them sometime if they bother you that much." Sasori stared at her as they sat at this Oceanside café, he wondered if she were serious about that comment. No one said anything for a moment. Finally Sasori broke the silence.

"Hey, have I told you about the time my dumb blonde friend got his hair caught in a salad shooter at a yard sale we had once?" Lola laughed.

"Oh my god! Oh my god….that's too funny, please tell me!" She reached out and took hold of Sasori's hand.

"Oh my goooooooooooooooooooood! You stupid fuckers! Get the fuck out of the valet lane!!!!!!!!!!!" Itachi laid on the horn.

"Um, Itachi I'm not saying I'm right or anything but maybe if you wouldn't yell so much we'd get parked sooner, yeah." Deidar said nervously.

"Deidara, you are nothing but a fucking pussy. Shut the hell up you can barely drive. Now MOVE BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Itachi laid on the horn again. 35 minutes later they had finally turned the keys over to the valet. It was time to go find Sasuke. Both of them were getting ready to take off through the airport and find the gate but Itachi stopped in his tracks.

"Wait, there are people in this airport, it's a crowded place. We should use this opportunity to practice out walk."

"What walk, yeah?" Deidara asked.

"You know, our runway walk." Itachi said.

"Oooooooh our runway walk, yeah we should practice that." And so they took off through the airport in high fashion and the perfect step. After about 10 minutes of being beautiful they found the gate and sat down to wait for the planes arrival.

"Hey, I'm Chanise." Some girl had introduced herself to Itachi.

"I know what you're up to and believe me the girl I sleep with is like 100 times better looking than you." Needless to say that moment was over fast. "Hey, which is bigger 2 carats or 4 carats?" Itachi asked Deidara.

"What? Itachi, carrots are the same size, well unless they are those cute little salad carrots that you can eat with dill dip, yeah. It would depend on the number or carrots and 4 carrots are more than 2, yeah."

"No dumb ass, I mean like…diamonds…how many carats are bigger?

"Oh, those carats. Well, four is bigger."

"Okay, that's what I thought. Hey there's my stupid brother. Oh my god would you look at what he's wearing? A turtle neck!? This is fucking Miami! Come on let's go get his baggage."
